Imagine this scenario: I need to fit a 10x60 image into a 15x15 container. The goal is to stretch the image width proportionally (resulting in a 15x90 image), but without stretching the height beyond the width, which would cut off the bottom of the image.
While setting the width attribute to 100% helps stretch the width, how do I handle the height?
Appreciate your guidance!
To achieve the desired effect, you can utilize a background image and adjust its background-size property accordingly (either to contain or cover depending on your specific requirements).
.container {
background: url(http://via.placeholder.com/350x300) no-repeat center center orange;
background-size: contain;
animation-duration: 3s;
animation-name: changewidth;
animation-iteration-count: infinite;
animation-direction: alternate;
}
@keyframes changewidth {
from {
width: 100px;
height: 300px
}
to {
width: 300px;
height: 100px
}
}<div class="container"></div>If you want to change the positioning of an image, you can use absolute positioning like this:
.embed.ratio-16-9 img
.embed {
position: relative;
height: 0;
overflow: hidden;
max-width: 100%;
img {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
min-width: 100%;
}
.ratio-16-9 {
padding-bottom: 56.25%;
}
By doing this, the image will not be constrained by its containing block anymore.
From my understanding of the query, there is no need to mention a specific value for the height property. Simply add overflow:hidden to your container if you wish to hide any overflowing parts of the image. I trust this information proves useful.
CSS background-image and background-size properties
To add style to your web elements, consider utilizing the CSS background-image property. For optimal formatting, try incorporating the background-size: cover; rule. This directive adjusts the image based on the width of the container.
CSS:
.cont {
width: 200px;
height: 200px;
background-image: url('urlToImage100x300.jpg');
background-size: cover;
}
HTML:
<div class="cont"></div>
If you wish to vertically center your image, utilize background-position-y: center;.
.cont {
width: 200px;
height: 200px;
background-image: url('urlToImage100x300.jpg');
background-size: cover;
background-position-y: center;
}
Incorporating HTML img tag
If using an <img /> tag is necessary, place the image within a container, specify the desired width and height, set overflow-y to hidden, and adjust the image width to 100% for complete coverage.
CSS:
.cont {
width: 200px;
height: 200px;
overflow-y: hidden;
}
.cont img {
width: 100%;
}
HTML:
<div class="cont"><img src="image100x300.jpg" /></div>
